Answer:

1. b. skimming

2. b. scanning

3. a. skimming

4. b. scan

5. a. skimming

6. c. carefully read

Explanation:

Skimming and scanning are reading techniques we use to quickly find the information we need within a piece of writing. We use skimming for general information. For example, if we need to find out what an entire paragraph is about in a short time, we will use skimming. Scanning is used for specific details. If we needed to find a particular piece of information in the same paragraph, we would scan the paragraph.

However, there are instances when these techniques can't or shouldn't be used. Sometimes, we need to read a text carefully. For example, students should pay attention to all information their tests contain. If they miss some details, they could choose the wrong answers.

She hadn't noticed that several trucks were already unloading workers nearby. Then she heard it. First a small tittering and then louder. She turned around. A group of women were laughing at her. And in the middle of the group was Marta, pointing.


"¡La Cenicienta! Cinderella!" she laughed.

Mr. Frank. Now. About the noise. While the men are in the building below, we must have complete quiet. Every sound can be heard down there, not only in the workrooms, but in the offices, too. The men come at about eight-thirty, and leave at about five-thirty. So, to be perfectly safe, from eight in the morning until six in the evening we must move only when it is necessary, and then in stockinged feet. We must not speak above a whisper. We must not run any water. We cannot use the sink, or even, forgive me, the w.c. The pipes go down through the workrooms. It would be heard. No trash . . . (Mr. Frank stops abruptly as he hears the sound of marching feet from the street below. Everyone is motionless, paralyzed with fear. Mr. Frank goes quietly into the room on the right to look down out of the window. Anne runs after him, peering out with him. The tramping feet pass without stopping. The tension is relieved. Mr. Frank, followed by Anne, returns to the main room and resumes his instructions to the group) . . . No trash must ever be thrown out which might reveal that someone is living up here . . . not even a potato paring. We must burn everything in the stove at night. This is the way we must live until it is over, if we are to survive.

What does this dialogue reveal about how Mr. Frank views his role in the attic?

He considers himself to be the only person who is allowed to make rules.
He sees himself as a leader who is responsible for keeping the others safe.
He understands that people look to him for leadership, but it makes him uncomfortable.
He believes that he must give each person an equal say in creating the rules.

1: Many schools start before 8:30 a.m.,
causing students to be tired throughout
the school day. Tired students are not
able to learn as well as they could if
they were able to sleep later in the morning.
By getting more sleep, students will be
better able to complete their schoolwork.
So, school should start after 9 a.m.

2: Waking up early in the morning
for school is hard for many students.
When the alarm clock rings, they
want to curl up to go back to sleep.
Instead, they drag themselves out
of bed to face teachers who are
also tired. If schools started after
9 a.m., students and teachers would
be happier and more successful during
the school day.

3: Schools that start after 9 a.m.
have later dismissal times than
schools that start earlier. Students
that get out of school later in the
afternoon can’t participate in
after-school activities, like sports,
dance, and music lessons. Without
after-school activities students can’t
explore interests outside of what they
study in school. They also miss the
chance to learn skills like teamwork
and discipline. Since it’s important to
develop well-rounded students, school
should start before 9 a.m. so students
can be dismissed earlier in the afternoon.
